Exactly. You're essentially using the stalker/slasher concept, which is entirely derivative, but through the medium of the internet, which one sees now through movies like Swimfan, Hard Candy (though, to it's credit, it was attempting to do a role reversal), and even Halloween Resurrection (the attempt to make Halloween "modern" through webcams).

HOWEVER, I am personally a HUGE sucker for slashers, so by that token, you already have me hooked. But I would leave it up to the writing to decide the merits of the film - I honestly believe that it could be done well, Red. :)

I would love to see your script - Just dive into it and start writing.

What if the girl knew the guy was a serial killer and that's why she wanted him on her show? It is a webcam so there is the illusion of safety there and the girl was trying to get a show full of serial killers and interview them.

Maybe she was doing the show as ploy to find out how serial killers work and then she becomes the serial killer of serial killers and comes after these guys. A little role-reversal.

Just trying to come up with a fresh idea here :)

The things that scare people most are the things that could really happen.

computers are the antithesis of "cinematic" and characters sitting in a chair, typing and clicking seems really boring.

nothing wrong with the story, it just isn't a film.

it would make a much better short story

I dunno, I thought Hackers was a good movie.

I understand where you are all coming and I thank you all for your feedback. To Sean with the boring aspect. In my mind the flick wouldn't all surround her sitting there on the computer. There will be parts of her life that are shown and also 'his' life too. I am going to try and come up with different concepts and ideas for twists and turns and what not to keep it fresh and exciting.
